Description:

The epitome of Federal architecture and beauty, 2806 N Street was built c.1805. The large house is approximately, 5,500 sq. ft. on four levels, and the separate carriage house/garage at 1240 28th is approximately 1,200 sq. ft. and is included in this offering. Please refer to floor plans and the descriptions below for additional information. The proportions of 2806 are exceptional and grand. The ceilings are remarkably tall, the floors gorgeous, the staircase proper and well-placed, and there are lovely tall French windows and doors throughout which flood the house with light. The elevator and powder rooms are well-located off of the hallways. There are nine fireplaces and two roof terraces. Over the years, the property was renovated and expanded, yet its fine original mill work and other original details remain intact and are in excellent condition. Early modifications to the house were made in the 1800's. Most recently, it was meticulously restored, further expanded and modernized in 1992. The house sits on a large lot of approximately 4,600 sq. ft. on a most important block of N Street in the heart of Georgetown's east village. 2806 N has a large and wonderful, professionally landscaped, south-facing garden with mature plantings and trees and handsome brick patios and walkways which may be easily accessed from various rooms in the house. 1240 28th Street was built in 1992 in the Federal style. The 2-car, over-sized garage is very unusual for Georgetown. Upstairs is a charming suite of rooms which has been used by the current owner for his offices. It includes a full bath, wet bar, fireplace and attic. This is a rare opportunity to own one of Georgetown's finest houses in the best location.
